Abstract:

The wild turkey is North Carolina's most highly prized game bird. However, its future is uncertain. Either it will continue to flourish in many parts of the state, or it will be reduced to a few state-managed or private areas for hunting. Gooden discusses major problems affecting the wild turkey's future, including good turkey management, providing suitable habitats, and reducing disturbances in habitat areas.
